Getting Him Hooked: Mr. Freeman's Indifferent Sinner Wife

Chapter 11

brought for her was already cold and disgusting.Olivia felt sick, especially when she recalled what John had told her. She threw away the porridge on the table.She felt like the pain in her chest was killing her. It might have been because she had not taken her medication that morning.She dragged herself back to her room, holding on to the railing of the stair. After getting the medicine, she swallowed it down.Her family was destroyed by the man she loved most. He had also taken away her only brother. Now, this man was bringing back his mistress and wanted her to be a maid for her.How ironic.She felt like she knew nothing about the man she had loved for four years anymore.At that moment, Olivia’s phone rang.“Ms. Larson, I’m Wallace.”“Uncle Wallace?”Olivia’s eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, “Did you find out anything about where Ian is now?”Uncle Wallace was the Larson family’s butler. He returned to his hometown after the Larson family went bankrupt.However, over the past few years, Olivia had asked Uncle Wallace for a favor. She wanted him to look for her younger brother, Ian. “I’m sorry, but I haven’t found any information about Young Master Ian. I called you today to tell you something about Master Hans.”“About Dad?”“Yes. Before the villa was seized, I sent some old boxes back to my hometown. Two days ago, when I was cleaning the room, I found Madam Larson’s autopsy report in one of the boxes.”‘Mom’s autopsy report?’Olivia bit her lip and tried to control her emotions. She asked, “Didn’t mother die from obstructed labor?”“Yes, that’s true, but this autopsy report was not from the year Madam Larson died, but two years ago, just before Master Hans killed himself.“And there’s a letter in the trunk, handwritten by Master Hans for you, Ms. Larson.”‘What?‘So Mom didn’t die from labor, and Dad didn’t commit suicide?’Olivia felt her body freeze. She never expected this.She did not dare to think any further.After all, this had something to do with John.“Keep the case for me. I’ll come get it.”“Ms. Larson, I’m in the countryside. It’ll be inconvenient for you to come over. I’m free these days, so I can bring the case to you.”Uncle Wallace was in another state, and it would have taken her more than ten hours to travel there.Olivia thought about it. It was indeed inconvenient for her to travel. After all, Dorothy would be moving in the next day, and John would be mad if she was not at home.Thus, she pursed her lips and said, “Okay. You can come over, and we can catch up. Uncle Wallace, I miss you so much.”Since the Larson family went bankrupt, Uncle Wallace had not been back in Ocean City for a year.As soon as Uncle Wallace thought about the poor woman that he had taken care of ever since she was a girl, he felt very guilty and burst into tears.“Ms. Larson, I also miss you very much. You must take good care of yourself.”“Don’t worry, Uncle Wallace. I’m a grown-up now. I’ll buy you a ticket now.”Olivia held back her tears. She was fine, even though she was dying.After hanging up the call, Olivia went to the bathroom, washed her face, and forced herself to wake up.She looked into the mirror and muttered, “Olivia Larson, hang in there. Ian needs you to save him!”Once she was out of the bedroom, she went straight to the innermost guest room on the second floor.Dorothy definitely could not share a room with her, so she had to prepare another room.Olivia decided to choose the farthest room from her own. At least she would not have to hear anything she should not be privy to in the middle of the night.Thinking of this, Olivia felt as though something was stabbing her in the heart.From tomorrow onward, her husband would be staying in this room, sleeping with Dorothy right in front of her…The pulling pain in her chest assailed her again, making her cough.It was a dry cough. Olivia coughed
